[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We definitely got the sense that Wake is fun. Parties/darties and Greek life, too. DD is definitely interested in both, and it felt like a good fit.

Also, I think I remember that sororities have houses on campus but maybe only the officers live there? Not 100% sure, but my sense was that being in a sorority did not define a kid’s identity/friend group. Our tour guide was really open about that. She was a sophomore or junior and specifically said she was living in a large suite with a bunch of friends who were a mix of independent and in different sororities. The sorority part sounded more like a club to

me than an identity, which seemed similar to my (very positive) Greek experience at a different school 30 years ago. [/quote]

Half the sophomores in a sorority live together, and many also sign up to live together off campus as seniors when still sophomores.  Definitely way more than a club.  Wake has been dealing with more interest in Greek life than spots on both the frat and sorority side for a few years now.  There doesn’t seem to be university interest in adding more chapters for either, although they are increasing the freshman class size by about a 100 per year for the next 10 years or so.  This will probably decrease the prominence of Greek life as there simply isn’t enough spots in the desirable chapters.
